Galia Lahav, Josi

An ethereal romantic wedding gown that is elegantly sexy. The dress seemed to melt with my olive skin-tone creating a very flattering glow effect. The ivory and sequin embroidery gives this dress dimension and personality against the champagne base. Color palette pays homage to a traditional white dress that is intricately interesting and not boring. I attempted to catch as many of the different personalities of this dress in all different lighting. Truly wonderful!

I had the mid-thigh/flare point hem line raised a little more than an inch. The alteration gives the appearance of longer legs and leaner effect. It also adds a beautiful flow to dress is in motion. Galia Lahav modified the (A/B) demi-cups to be more rounded per my request because it looked more aesthetically pleasing to someone who is fairly flat-chested and did not want to worry about any cleavage enhancers like boomba popping out or showing in photos.

I am 5'6" and about 137 lbs. My body shape is fairly rectangular, yet this dress seemed to create this lovely curvature to make a bride feel beautiful. This dress is truly stunning and beauty enhancing. I wore the dress the entire night because it was that comfortable. I am sad to part with it, but this beauty needs to be worn more than once in its lifetime. This dress was definitely way out of my budget, but it was THE dress. I hope another bride-to-be wanting to wear a Galia Lahav at a more affordable price feels lucky in this purchase. Know that I am jealous of the next bride to find such a steal.

Dress appears way more champagne/nude in person even I had my apprehensions pre-wedding, but the truth is in the photos. It's like magic. Dress was professionally dry cleaned and preserved soon after my September 2025 wedding. Photo of dress on mannequin taken by Wedding gown preservation company after being cleaned before boxed and shipped back to me. No stains and practically flawless.
